Adams Rite Demonstrates Its New EX Series Exit Devices At ISC West 2018

ASSA ABLOY Group brand Adams Rite demonstrates its innovation and forward-thinking design with its new EX Series Exit Devices.

The four-model EX Series is designed with impact bumpers to reduce sound and horizontal and vertical guide with return control for smoother operation; a universal hardware kit for aluminum, hollow metal and wood installations; modern, contoured design with matching metal end caps and cut-to-length in field installation options.

The flexible, robust design paired with simple and adjustable installation provides an appealing solution for customers.

“The more dynamic our solutions become, the easier we make it for our partners to identify new opportunities to install and specify our products,” said Benjamin Williams, Senior Product Manager, ASSA ABLOY.

“The new EX Series Exit Devices provide our customers the flexibility that they require complimented by the aesthetics and reliability that they demand. The initial release includes four of seven models that will be available to the market. Each model comes standard with a universal hardware kit for installation on aluminum, hollow metal and wood doors.

While all models are available in 3 standard lengths, each can be cut-to-length providing installers the flexibility to accommodate unforeseen changes in the field and allow for versatile, flexible inventory. Adhesive templates and step-by-step 3D instructions are provided to assist with device mounting and reduce installation time.”

The Adams Rite EX series includes four models:

Unique to Adams Rite, the EX88 Interlocking Rim Exit Device with a robust and unique bolt design that interlocks the door to frame for enhanced strength and durability.

The EX89 Pullman Rim Exit Device features a ¾-inch Pullman latch bolt that is compatible with the Adams Rite preload capable 74R1 Electric Strike and provides an easy solution to electrify an opening.

Both Rim Exit Devices are preload capable and designed for use on single doors or with mullion on pairs of doors.

EX76 Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device (CVR) features easily adjustable concealed rods and latching assembly designed for easy installation, maintenance and adjustment. The EX76 is designed for single or pairs of doors.

I have mentioned in this space before that I have the opportunity to travel a lot and that this has afforded me an excellent view into how airports are run. But my perspective is not limited to their inner workings. In fact, from my office here in Montreal, I can see the O6L and 24R runways at the P.E. Trudeau airport. This means that, every once in a while, I get to watch these feats of engineering and technology move through the air. And I am reminded of the incredible precision required to get so many planes safely through take-off and landing every day. At the same time, I also know that any disruption on the airfield —no matter how small— can delay flights or threaten security.
